Let’s sit down over a couple of beers from Two Beers Brewing Co.

Last weekend, Michael and I went to support a friend’s appearance with his band, Ambience, at a South Lake Union event that was sponsored by the SLU Chamber of Commerce and promoted by the folks at Vulcan who would love for you to buy one of their condominiums in this up and coming downtown area.  At the event several local vendors were displaying information about their businesses to those attending with the biggest focus being on the Arthur Murray dance school who was hosting the space.  One of the vendors we met was Joel VandenBrink of Two Beers Brewing Co, a Seattle based brewer who is just beginning to reach out to the local pub communities to distribute product.

According to the gentleman we spoke to, their beers are in several north end Seattle pubs such as 74th Street Ale House, Sully’s Snowgoose Inn up in Phinney Ridge, and more.  I recommended that he head south a little bit too and hit up Whistle Stop Ale House in Renton as well as Columbia City.  I was reassured that they’re going to be doing just that along with a tour of Tacoma pubs in the next 1-2 weeks with one, The Red Hot, already drafting and there is one location on the Eastside too. The link above will give you all of their current distribution spots. 

We were able to sample the Echo IPA and the 20:20 Blonde, and were duly impressed.  I also liked that on the little flyers that were handed out the following notes were printed:

Take some time.

Look at the world.

Gain a new perspective.

Along with those great tag lines, when I asked Joel about where the name came from, he said, “it’s the idea that anyone can sit down across the table from another person over a couple of beers and talk about anything.”  Now, that concept is something I can drink to.   Cheers to you, Joel, and good luck with your budding brewing business!
